New books by Brian Cull

[Brian]

Hi Mark

Re Blenheims: both RAF and Greek, some good gen on both!

Re: Blacks in RAF Blue: sub-title is non-white aircrew; therefore I intend to cover not only black West Indians and West Africans, but also Indians in the RAF, Maori in RNZAF, Aboriginals in RAAF etc.

Hope they'll whet your appetite!

Cheers
Brian

Is it 100% sure that "First of the few" will be published in april?
Who will publish Marylands over Malta?

[Martin Gleeson]

Hallo Brian,

I look forward to acquiring those books you listed. Thanks for the updates.

However is there any news on Vol. 2 of 'FLYING SAILORS AT WAR' ?

Regards,

Martin.

[Brian]

Thanks guys for the interest.

Dominik: I understand Wise Owl of Malta will do the Marylands book. I will post latest info asap. The publisher of First of the Few states 16 April!

Martin: Regret delay on Volume 2 of Flying Sailors - it's more or less awaiting the publisher's decision!

Cheers
Brian

Hi guys

Latest update re FIRST OF THE FEW - publication date now 23 May.

I would point out that the cover illustration shown on Amazon is a mock-up, though the actual cover is similar, but better!

Although not mentioned in the blurb, the book includes FAA action against the French Fleet at Mers-el-Kebir and Dakar (July 1940), and details of the Italo-French conflict of June 1940.

I must knuckle down and get it finished!

Cheers
Brian

In sympathy with your plight, I have had the odd Scotch or two. I feel a lot better and I hope you do!

I hope the book helped also!

Heheheh...whatever it was you were drinking seems to have helped; I feel MUCH better!

I thought that I would have nice read in April. Well have to wait and keep fingers crossed.

Hi guys

I will be in Malta in a couple of weeks so should know more about the progress of MARYLANDS OVER MALTA.

Will advise asap.

Hi guys

I'm off to Malta tomorrow, so should know how MARYLANDS OVER MALTA is progressing - or not.

Will let you know more in 10 days time or so.

I will have a good time, thanks, what with all that warm weather (Zero C today here!) Our twin granddaughters will be with us (just 13) so will make sure I don't come to any harm!

FIRST OFTHE FEW draft has just been sent to the publisher - due out late May.

Cheers

Hi guys

I'm afraid there is no positive news re MARYLANDS OVER MALTA, but stay tuned ................!!

Cheers
